The Topdown metrics events were added as 'perf stat' default events
since commit 42641d6f4d ("perf stat: Add Topdown metrics events as
default events").
However, the perf attr tests were not updated
accordingly.
The perf attr test fails on the platform which supports Topdown metrics.
# perf test 17
17: Setup struct perf_event_attr :FAILED!
Add Topdown metrics events into perf attr test cases. Make them optional
since they are only available on newer platforms.
Fixes: 42641d6f4d ("perf stat: Add Topdown metrics events as default events")

Otherwise we fail on virtual machines with no support for specific HW
events.

Some of the stat events are quite rare to find on common machines (like
front end cycles).
Adding an 'optional' term to mark such events in attr tests. Event
marked as optional will not fail the test case if it's not found in
results.
